Minestrone Soup (Gluten Free)

Jump to Recipe
My mom always made the most delicious soups when I was growing up and minestrone was one of them. The broth was rich and the soup was loaded with veggies galore, and we all know I love me some veggies!
This recipe has everything I need in a good hearty soup. Creamy kidney beans, carrots, tomatoes, zucchini, and the richest broth ever. Topped off with fresh parm and some crusty bread for dipping…yaaas! Plus, I made this in 30 minutes so it’s the ideal busy weeknight supper.

I decided to swap out the regular macaroni noodles for gluten free because it has more then twice the amount of protein and 30% fewer carbs than regular pasta. You guys, my daughter didn’t even recognize the difference and she is the queen of texture. This soup is a bowl full of cozy goodness and I hope you try this ASAP!

Let’s eat!🤍

Minestrone Soup (Gluten Free)
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup onion, chopped fine
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 large carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 2 small zucchini sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 28 oz can crushed Italian style tomatoes
- 1 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 32 oz low sodium vegetable broth
- 14 oz can red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 8 oz Banza gluten-free elbow macaroni or use regular macaroni
- Parm cheese
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Instructions
Pasta
- Cook pasta according to directions. Rinse well and set aside until ready to use.
Soup
- Heat oil in large pot over medium heat and add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until veggies are tender. Add crushed tomatoes, herbs, veg broth, and kidney beans. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add zucchini slices and cook another 5 minutes then add cooked pasta. I used all but a 1/2 cup of pasta because I wanted more broth but you can certainly use the entire 8 ounces. Taste to make sure you don't need more salt and pepper. Serve with freshly grated parm cheese.
